The McCosh Infirmary at Princeton.

The severity of the winter has greatly hindered the work on the new infirmary at Princeton, which will now be ready for use in about two weeks. It was to have been completed by the first of last October; but owing to the lack of the necessary water supply and to difficulties with plumbing and draining, the contract was not fulfilled.

The building faces East, and highly polished oak doors set off the front porch, in the centre of which "Non Ministrari sed Ministrare" is laid in tessello ted marble. All the inner doors, floors, and window sashes are made of soft yellow pine, which is capable of a very high polish. The walls and ceilings are glazed with a hard, white, glossy finish. The sun parlors are the principal features of the building, being so constructed as to admit the sunlight during the whole day.
