"I haven't had a good night's sleep since you broke into my house," he declared to Dickie one day. "Perhaps you're over-eating," Dickie suggested politely. Old Mr. Crow did not appear to like that remark. "Nothing of the sort!" he bawled. "I don't eat enough to keep a mosquito alive." "I often see you in the cornfield," Dickie Deer Mouse told him. "Ha!" Mr. Crow exclaimed.

'You darling, how pale and worried you look! exclaimed Bessie, as she hugged her friend; 'and why didn't you let me come before? 'You could have done me no good, dear, when my troubles were at the worst. Thank God the worst is over now Vernie is getting on splendidly. He was downstairs to-day, and ate such a dinner. We were quite afraid he would bring on a relapse from over-eating.

Hammond added that, when acquired, merycism was almost invariably the result of over-eating and loading the esophagus, or the result of fast eating. In remarks upon Hammond's paper Knapp said that two cases had come to his knowledge, both in physicians, but one of them he knew of only by hearsay.

To be sure it was a bad way of spending a Sunday, to be laid up with ailments brought on by over-eating; but even this was better than spending it, like the former one, in wilful misbehaviour; and John, who knew that Papa, Mamma, brothers, and sisters all alike detested and despised real greediness, had been heartily ashamed of himself, both for this and his forfeits.

Doubtless a Roman dinner too often meant over-eating and over-drinking, and doubtless neither the ordinary table manners nor the ordinary table conversation would recommend themselves to us. The same might be said of our own Elizabethan age.

Alderling was no more to be censured for the refuge which her nerves sought from the situation in over-eating than Alderling for the smoking in which he escaped from the pressure they both felt from one another; and she was not less fitted than he for their joint experience. I do not suppose it was with the notion of keeping her weight down that Mrs.

I guess he had a weak heart, due to over-eating, and the cold water upset him." "But you left him in the river?" "Wrong every time. I chucked him into a barge and covered him tenderly with a tarpaulin." Meiklejohn sprang upright. "Good God," he cried, "he may be alive!" "Sit down, William, sit down," was the cool response.
