They scampered after him a noisy tribe, begging to be taken down to the field, and holding out their six mugs entreatingly. "What! six cupfuls of milk, when I haven't a drop to spare, and Cook is always wanting more? Ridiculous nonsense! Get along with you; you may come to the field I can't hinder that but you'll get no milk to-day. Take your mugs back again to the kitchen."

"You can't treat your guardian like that! Do tell me what it's all about!" And bending forward, she laid her two small hands entreatingly on the girl's knee.

"Señoras, I pray for you, come into ze house at once!" spoke up the Señora again, turning entreatingly to the ladies. "I you promess, zat wen you an orange an' cup of coffee 'ave 'ad, you will yourselves better feel." "The Señora's right," broke in the Captain.

The Cain has his back toward you. His wife and child look up at him entreatingly.
