The time used to be years ago when the idea of a woman being phy- sician or a dentist was considered a most unusual thing.
 It was almost as mannish as a woman even wanting to votel
 Now the timo has come when the people wonder how in the world they ever got along without the woman physician. She has established her. self as having mentality, just as bright, application Just as strong. and sympathy just as tender as a mans.
 In addition, woman physician, to A woman. very often suggests med ium to shield her modesty; while a great many women declare that wo- men physicians give them better treatment because they, themselves. are women, and understand the nerv- ous system, diseases, feelings and emotions of the feminine sex.
 More Physicians
 Be that as 1t may, year by year the number of women physicians is in- creasing. and when they go into the profession seriously 1t usually fol- lows that they have their hands full If they make good A woman phy- sician who has really made good, and who may be said to be one of the city's most successful women Is Dr.. Leonora Bond.
 She has her own little office in the Farley building, to which. in the past four years, hundreds of people have trooped in to be treated.
 Here she receives men, women and even children who are suffering from every imaginable disease. For, while she holds osteopathy as her profess sion, she does not hold that mere ad- i1te tT71a fu ar n1l ha 4r loo Up that profession.
 By osteopathy, she claims that even acute diseases like pneumonia, ty- phoid fever, diptheria. tonsilitis and such things can be cured--and her own experience with such cases has been most successful.
 Said Dr. Bond yesterday:
 By adjustments and manipulation of the body. osteopaths force the blood to cary off the poison. We use the accessories toward getting our ra- tients well that medical men do in the way of baths, diet. rest and fresh air. The work of osteopathy. especially In influenza cases, shows that osteopaths have lost less than one per cent of them, while the medicos have had fatalities of from five to Is per cent.
 Can Head Knife
 We believe in surgery also. But very often we can head off certain diseases so that the knife is not necessary.
 Our first reasoning is that the body is a mechanism, and if 1t Is in perfect good order and will be we'll. Many times people have adjustments that need to be made. and If this is not done person cannot get well. l might illustrate by this If your

lan osteopath Is compelled to study 1 fcur years, with nine months training i each year, while doctors graduate in 1 four years with training of only eight months per annum.
 pr. Bond laughed.
 50 there is always great bunch of pleasantly about how osteopaths have four months longer training than doctors. However. we don't study medicine as medicine, except in 1 certain specific instances. We do study and use anti toxins, for natur- ally in poison cases we must work quickly"
 pr. Bond says her work is fasci- hating, and that it is a particularly fine field of work for women. Pure Labor
 However, there is not much sitting around. It's all work, practically work with the hands as well as with the brain and judgment. For an oste- opath is supposed to relieve conges- tion, set spines right and hustle ton silitis away very quickly!
 When I was there, pr. Bond had iust finished treating tonsilitis case of child in which she had used massage on the outside of the throat, applying cleansing and sterile processes to the inside throat as well, after having removed with one fin- ger. covered with gauge, impurities collected on the tonsiis.
 "By giving the massage this ar lords perfect drainage and relief of pressure on the body so that tie nerves and blood vessels can do their work.
 Dr. Bond practiced in Montana a year before coming to Birmingham
 Not only has she made a success osteopathically, but from a monetary standpoint.
 There isn't million dollars in the work, but there is always a good living" she said. Then, it's so de- lightfuI to know that you are re- lieving pain"
 Fine Pal
 Of bright, sunny, optimistic dis position, and extremely brilliant in mind, pr. Bond is a splendid com panion.
 Her philosophy of life is. ITO do your duty every day-that's the big thing. Many of us sigh to do great things, but I do feel that anything a human being does to help people live better, stronger lives is great in itself"
 Dr. Bond believes In honesty. fair dealing and truth telling in business, as well as in private life.
 "Of course I do not believe in go- ing to the extent of telling your patient that he or she is bound to die. The reason for this is that, even though 1t might be the truth, it cer tainly could not do your patient any good, and on the contrary might be es the utmost detriment."
 Intelligent work, studious diag nosis of patients. and infinite pains. to find out exactly what the trouble Is, all are necessary if one is sue cessful in medical life, Dr. Bond holds.
 You cannot size up a case by merely looking at your patient CT hearing him relate a few minor symptoms. You should know the his- tory of that case and not one but every symptom or pain suffered. Sometimes 1t Is the very small things that lead you to the correct diagnosis. Understanding of your case is the first principle"

He always felt that there was no reason why a good thing should and could not be done by women as well as men. In my class there were l 175 men and 37 women.
