The Eclipse Lawn Mower Guaranteed for 10 years The Eclipse is the only self-sharpening lawn mower on the market. Its first cost is therefore its only cost. Yon do not have to pay someone to sharpen it from time to time. To sharpen the Eclipse you simply turn a little sleeve on the center of the reel shaft, spread a little mixed emery and oil on the cutter bar blade and push the mower backward. The emery grinds both the reel blades and the cutter-bar blade by this one operation. The Eclipse has a patented thumb screw adjustment, which adjusts the entire length ol the cutter bar in one operation. The Eclipse is the easiest mower made to keep in good running condition. Every adjustment is simple, efficient and practically fool proof. The Eclipse has been sold in Decatur for fifteen years and many ol these machines are still in active use. This is why it is guaranteed for If) years. —Sold by— Henry Knapp & Son East Monroe Street.
