Plums In Batter.

Make a batter with two beaten eggs, five tablespoonfuls of flour, a little more than one pint of milk, and add a pinch of salt. Remove the stones from one quart of large ripe plums, crack them, put the kernels inside of the plums again, mix the fruit with two heaping tablespoonfuls of moist sugar and stir it lightly into the batter. Turn it into a buttered padding dish and hake in a hot oven till done, about 40 minutes. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the top, and serve hot with one-half cupful of butter, one cup of sugar, and one well beaten egg stirred to a cream and flavored.
