IeYen then it is not necessary, for one
can get an the benefits OF fasting and
more without discomfort by Subsisting
for time upon fruit diet. In this
way the germs are starved out, the
fruit juice acting rs n disinfectant.
Usually one or two days Of this kind
OF fasting is all that is needed, and
it Is not always necessary to use the
fruit entirely alone even then. Some
dry sterilized bread. such as zwieback
or granose, may be taken with IL with
out interfering with the purpose of the

jbe accomplished By the use of fruit in
ridding the digestive tract Of germs.

A BIG SLAUGHTER
AS a Result Two Hundred and
Fifty Ducks are Bagged.

The largest duck killing made
in this part of the country for 3
long time was made on Tuesday
of this week by c. NJ, w. ]. and
L. A. Hurlburt and sons and Mr..
Lewelling, when they killed 25c
widgeons, mallards and teals.
The lot contained considerable
more of the former than the two
latter.
One hundred and fifty of the
above number were brought to
town on Thursday and the re-
mainder were brought in today.
The ducks were sold to Berry
& Carl, who ship them to Page
& Son, in Portland.
The Hurlburt brothers and
Lewelling have brought three
lots to Berry & Carl, the total
number being 3I9 ducks. They
receive s cents each for the teal,
IS cents fer the widgeons and 20
cents for the mallards, thus max
ing a neat sum for their trouble.
The above number does not
near cover the amount the parties
have killed this season. but only
shows those sold to Berry & Carl.

THE AlL-STAR TEAM.
Bert. Pillington is Chosen Cap
tain and Fullback.

The matter of choosing an all
star team this season from the
colleges OF Oregon, Washington
and Idaho, has been difficult
matter. This is what the Ore
gonian says regarding the selec-
tion:
Sowing to the increased num-
Der of well-coached elevens in
the Pacific Northwest, the task of
selecting an al1-star college team
from ihe college elevens is by no
means an easy one. The selec-
tions have beer made, after con-
sultation with many well-known
football authorities, and the men
have been chosen from the ranks
of regular college elevens.
Those against whom charges of
professionalism, unfair conduct
both on and off the field, and
lack of bona-6de student stand
ing, have not been considered.
The record OF the whole seasons
play has been the main factor in
the selection, and the fact that
man played on a winning or
losing team has not been. taken
into considerations
The following is the lineup
of the all-star team:
Left end, Meldrum, U. o.
Right end, Chandler, U. o.
Left tackle, Rogers, Idaho.
Right tackle, Sigrist, U. w.
Left guard, Thomas, Idaho.
Right guard. Scherer, U w.
Center, Walker, o. A. c.
Quarterback, Speidel, U. w.
Left halt, Goodrich, U. O..
Right half, McElmon, U w.
Fullback and captain, Pilking-
ton, @. A. c.
The Oregonian says that for
the position of center rush, big
Walker, of o A c, is by far the
best man. His weight and speed
would win for him a position on
any team. Lantz, U. W., and
Pilkington, 0 A c, are the lead
ing candidates for fullback, but
the latter is undoubtedly the bet
ter man for the position. With
Pilkington IN the lineup, the ALI
| Northwest eleven would not only
have fierce line-plunging full
back but also a high-c class punter
and a sagacious field captain.
