the boy gave his whole attention to the pups, and when they were 

 abont ten days old the mother kept whining one day so much that

 more than a week she wasn't known to eat anything, but went 

 where she had buried the puppies and whined' constantly. The 

 only way I can account for it is the affect of the climate, for all of 

 her sex are jealous iu this country. J. \V.
