DAILY TIDINGS MADE LARGER
W ith th is issue The Tidings is
en larg ed to an eight page paper. How
long it will continue eight pages de
pends on th e ad v ertising patronage.
F rom now till a fte r the holidays the
dem and for a d v ertisin g space will be
heavy and we have increased the
pages to m ake room for th e ad d i
tio n a l ad v ertising w ithout sacrificing
th e in te re st of th e subscriber. It is
th e am bition of th e p u b lish er to
give A shland as good paper as the
business will ju stify — even a b e tte r
— for we feel th a t a city is judged
largely by th e class of new spapers
published and supported. We do not
expect to m ake profit from th e daily
th e first year. All of th e earnings
will be put back into b e tte rm e n t u n
til A shland has as good daily as any
city of its size in the country. T hat
is ou r am bition.

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS.
If the dishes in which ice cream or
frozen dishes are served are chillet} in
the refrigerator the prob
lem of melting ices is
practically solved.
Salads, too, should be
served on cold plates to
avoid wilting.
Frozen dishes molded
in melon molds should
he served sliced in pie
shaped pieces, cutting
from the center of the
Serve a t once on cold plates.
Cream is whipped enough when the
egg beater leaves its p r in t 'in the
beaten cream. Longer beating will
often cause hits of butter to form in
the cream.
A sufficient quantity of white sauce
may be made to last two or three days
if kept covered in the ice chest.
Flour th at has been sifted several
days should always he re.sifted when
ready to use. If a cupful of flour Is
called for in a recipe do not dip the
cup into the flour, but till it lightly
with a spoon. All recipes in the mod
ern books call for level measurem ents
of all ingredients.
The usual recipe serves six people
amply. By cutting down the ingredi
ents to halves or thirds it suits the
needs of a small family. If fortunate
enough to have a large one double the
amounts.
In making French dressing use half
lemon juice and half vinegar or dilute
the vinegar with w ater or fruit juice,
using three times ns much oil as acid.
A convenient way of making the
dressing Is to put all the ingredients
inio a fruit ja r and shake until It
thickens and then it is ready to use
at any time with a few preliminary
shakes, and will keep indefinitely in a
cool place.
In molding gelatin m ixtures the
chilling may be hastened by having at
hand a dripping pan tilled with
cracked ice into which the molds may
be set. A little salt sprinkled on the
ice quickens the chilling.
Do not wasli mushrooms but brush
with a butter brush to clean them. Use
the peelings cooked in a little water
and drained as flavor for sauces. The
flavor is in the liquor, so the peelings
nyiy be thrown away.
“Keep me young enough to laugh
with my children and to lose myself in
their play.
“Grant, I beseech thee, that I may
earn my-,meal ticket on the square and
in the doing thereof that 1 may not
stick the gaff where it does not belong.

“Help me to live so th at I can lie
i down at night with a clear conscience,
i without a gun under my pillow and un-
¡n au n fe d by the faces of those to whom
; I have brought pain.
“And then, when conies the smell of
flowers and the tread of soft steps, and
the crushing of a hearse’s wheels in
the gravel out in front of my place,
make the ceremony short and the epi
taph simple, ‘Here lies a man.’ ”
