The Stillman Infirmary will open today, and will be conducted on the same plan as last year. In return for an annual payment of four dollars, any sick student in the University is admitted to the Infirmary on the order of a physician, and is given, without further charge a bed, board and nursing for two weeks during the academic year. The regular charge is two dollars a day for every day over two weeks. The fee of four dollars is charged on the February term-bills of all students registered in the Cambridge departments of the University.
