OUR KE0TA LETTER
PUBLIC LIBRARY PROPOSITION
DEFEATED AT SPECIAL ELEC.
TioN-DEATH OF OLIVER BRIcE
JONES IN NEW YORK.

keota, Ia, Aug. 28.-The question
of free public library for Keota
was defeated Monday at the special
election. The tax levy of one or two
mills on the dollar doomed large be-
fore the eyes of some Others feared
the library tax would defeat a tax
for sewerage which is badly needed
in the town. Others were opposed to
the library itself. The promoters of
the enterprise hope to be able at some
future date to overcome the prejudice
and establish the library on a perma-
nent basis.
| Word was received Friday an
of Oliver Brice Jones, former Keo-
ia boy. The body will be brought to
Keota for burial, arriving Wednesday
morning. Aug. %. Services will be
held in the Methodist church Wednes-
day afternoon at o'clock, conducted
by Rev. II. B. Scoles. Brice Jones
was the son of o. B. Jones, of this
city. His death was the result of an
operation. He was aged AZ years
and 2 days. Hen is9 survived by his
father and by omen tHnthers Alfred
Jones, of Washington, Ia. and by two
sisters, Mrs. Christopher Brollier of
Richland and Mrs William Stoutner
of Keota.
The young ladies of the Question
club held two miscellaneous showers
Monday evening in honor of the
Misses Mary DeYoe and Bess Holmes.
The first was at the home of Miss
Bess Smock where the gifts we're
presented. At 10 o'clock the compa-
ny adjourned to the home of Miss
Maude Erdice, where refreshments
were served, Both homes were pro-
fusely decorated with red and white

A clever swindle is practiced by
ipeddlers travelling about and canvass
ing houses in town and country by
falsely pretending to be opticians,
doctors, ETC., and to have great skill
in fitting the eyes for glasses. In or.
der to dispose of their cheap and
worthless glasses set in poorly made
frames, they make a practice of fur
nishing glasses that magnify too
much, which for a short time appear
to improve the vision. The effect of
such glasses is to produce an irritable
condition of the eyes and cause them
to ache, and require frequent re.
course to stronger and still stronger
glasses.
Exhorbitant prices are also charged
by these constituencies rascals, for
goods much inferior to those kept by
your local dealers or reputable opti-
clans. Frequently these peddling
confidence men and frauds will sell a
pair of spectacles for an enormous
price when the quality is so poor that
a respectable optician or jeweler
would refuse to deal in them, at any
price.
Also, false address is often given,
where these plausible scoundrels
claim to have large optical store
with an immense business, but should
his customer visit the city and look
up the number, he might find va
cant lot or business of an entirely
different character and that the
learned and distinguished doctor was
entirely unknown.
The above does not exhaust the list
of ingenious tricks practiced by the
aforesaid gentlemen by any means,
their stories and their methods of
fleeing their dupes being widely var
led and only limited by the talent of
the operator. So far as conscience is
concerned, it cuts no figure, and the
only safe way is for those who wear
glasses not to allow a travelling i'm
poster to either wheedle or frighten
them out of their money. The ped
ding optician is an impudent fraud
as a rule.
Any statement made by a glass ped
der is probably a lie
Only yesterday lady reported that
"a person claiming the name of DR..
Mitchell had visited her house, sold
her glasses for ten dollars. He
claimed to be an eye doctor living
in Oskaloosa. The glasses she could
not wear and she had looked for the
doctor and could not find him.
Take warning! Don't be swindIed
by glass peddIers.
