LIEUT.. FoULoIs BETTER.
Army Aviator VIII Leave Hospital
in Two Weeks.

According to attending physicians. the
condition Of Lieut.. Benjamin D. Foulois,
who was removed to the Walter Reed
General Hospital Thursday from his home,
was much improved last night.
Lieut.. Foulois was Ill at his home in
the Ontario, and it was thought that the
climate on the Mexican border, where he
was stationed during the late uprising
in Mexico. was the cause for his illness,
but on Thursday his condition became so
grave that he was removed to the hos
pital. 1t was stated last night that an
operation would not be performed as was
first thought necessary.
No visitors were permitted to Mr.. Fou-
lois ward yesterday with the exception
Of his wife, who was at his side through
out the greater part Of the day. 1t was

DIPLOMAS FOR FORTY-TWo.
Sunday school Teachers Rewarded
for Their Attendance.

for Their Attendance.
As a fitting climax TO the splendid
work done during the past week by
lecturers at the Fifth Baptist Church,
the audience last night was one OF the
largest of the week. The work OF in
structing Sunday school teachers is an
innovation in Washington. and the re-
suits have been remarkable. To the
teachers who attended at least twenty
lectures during the course a certificate
was given, while those who attended
every lecture were awarded diplomas.
There were 40 certificates given and
forty-two diplomas.
DR.. I. J. Van Ness delivered the prin-
cipal lecture last night, taking as his
subject the mems work in the Sunday
school. He made an earnest plea for
men teachers, as they were more COM
petent to teach boys than women. DR..
B. W. Spillman spoke on the boy prob
lem, in which he warned boys against
leaving Sunday school.
On account OF the success attained. 1t
is probable that the different Baptist
churches in Washington will take up
the matter Of lectures for Sunday school
teachers and provide lecturer for each
church.

Pineapple Pudding.

This is a particularly nice and very di-
gestible steamed pudding. If you don't
care for pineapple you can use any other
kind of firm fruit.
Take two eggs, their weight in butter,
flour, and powdered sugar, half tea
spoonful of baking powder, two table
spoonfuiS of cubes of preserved timed
pineapple and one tablespoonful of pine
apple sirup.
Take two eggs and put them on the
scales where the weights ought to be.
then weigh out the butter -four, and
sugar. Put the butter and sugar to-
gether and beat them with a wooden
spoon until they are like whipped cream,
then add the eggs one by one, beating
each one in thoroughly.
Mix the flour and baking powder to-
gether. This is best done by passing
them through Il sieve. Stir them lightly
in the mixture and add the cubes of pine
apple and the sirup. Mix all well to-
gether. put the mixture into we'll but
tered mold and cover the top with a piece
of buttered paper.
Put the mold into a saucepan with boil
ing water to come >nfway up. put the
lid on the pap and let the pudding cook
steadily for about one hour and a half
Be careful that the water does not all
boil away. 1t will probably need replen-
ishng. All boiling water or the cooking
will be checked and the pudding spoiled
To make sure the pudding is done stick
a clean metal skewer into it. If it comes
out clean and free from mixture the pud-
ding is done; if otherwise it requires
longer cooking. When done turn it care
fully on to a hot dish. and if liked some
more pineapple cubes can be just heated
through in little of the sirup and poured
round as a garnish.
Remember that steamed pudding
should be served as soon as possible after
ii is dished up.
