A license issued by the last-mentioned board must be recorded in the office of the judge of probate of the county (_ib._, s. 1,299). The license or diploma, after record, is evidence of authority; if the original be lost, a certified copy of the record is sufficient evidence (_ib._, s. 1,300). Without a certificate of qualification from the board provided for in sec. 1,301, except as above provided, no person can lawfully practise medicine in any of its branches or departments as a profession or means of livelihood (_ib._, s. 1,302). The standard of qualification, method or system, and subjects of examination are prescribed by the medical association of the State (_ib._, s. 1,303). The board of medical examiners, on application, must examine an applicant for a certificate of qualification as a practitioner of medicine, and if he be found qualified, and of good moral character must issue a certificate (_ib._, s. 1,304). Physicians having a license as above before the organization in a county of a board, are on application thereto entitled to a certificate without examination and to be registered as licensed practitioners of medicine (_ib._, s. 1,305). The certificate is a license throughout the State. It must be recorded in the office of the judge of probate of the county in which the person resides at the time of issue. Upon recording it, the judge must indorse a certificate of record and sign it and affix the seal of the court (_ib._, s. 1,306). Such certificate, or, if lost, a certified copy of the record, is evidence (_ib._, s. 1,307). PENALTY.—A contract for the services of a physician or surgeon is void unless he has authority to practise; proof of authority is not required at trial except on two days’ notice (_ib._, s. 1,318). Practising medicine or surgery without a certificate is a misdemeanor under a penalty of a fine of from $25 to $100. This provision is not applicable to physicians practising medicine in Alabama in 1890, who are graduates of a respectable medical college and have complied with the law by having their diplomas recorded by the judge of probate in the county where they practise; nor to a physician who has practised in the State for the past five years (Act 1890-91, c. 376); nor to women practising midwifery (Code 1887, s. 1,308). FEES.—The statutory fees are as follows: To judge of probate, for record of diploma, or license or certificate, $1 (_ib._, s. 1,298, 1,299, 1,306). To board of medical examiners, for examination, actual expenses (_ib._, s. 1,304). ARIZONA.
