The ST. Louis Globe Democrat publishes a
very good cut of DR.. O. S. Runnels. saying that
''The election of DE-. Runnels. of Indianapolis,
as president of the Homeopathic Institute, seems
to give great satisfaction. 1t also gives the follow
ing sketch: 20. S. Runnels. NJ. D., of Indianapo-
Lis, the newlv-elected president, is among the
younger members Of the institute. He is a
native of Ohio, and was born June Ii, 1647; is
therefore not quite thirty-eight years of age.
He received his literary and scientific education
at Oberlin, and graduated in medicine from the
Cleveland Homeopathic Hospital College in 1874.
DR.. Runnels at once located in Indianapolis,
where he has ever since been engaged in the
practice of his profession. He acquired a large
and lucrative practice, and has filed every posi-
ton of honor in the local and State homeopathic
societies of Indiana, showing his great popularity
at home. Dr. Runnels was vice president of the
American Institute in 1882, and has always been
an energetic worker, a writer of ability and a
devotee of the institute which yesterday con-
ferred its highest honor upon him."
