    A glass of milk

    　　During our lifetime, we should help people in need．As a return, we may get help some day in the future．In my opinion, everyone should be kind enough to treat others warm-heartedly．Next let's enjoy this beautiful story．

    　　One day, a poor boy was trying to pay for school by selling from door to door．He was hungry so he decided to ask for a meal at the next house．However, when a nice young woman opened the door, he changed to ask for a drink of water．She thought he looked so hungry so she brought a large glass of milk．He drank it a little slowly and then asked, “How much do I pay?”“You needn't do that,”she said．“Mother has taught me to be kind．”“Then thank you very much,”he said．

    　　As the boy, Howard Kelly, left the house, he felt strong and believed that people could be kind before he was about to give up．

    　　Years later, the young woman became seriously ill．She was sent to a big city, where experts can be called in to study her illness．When Dr．Howard Kelly, a very famous doctor now, heard the name of the town that she came from, a strange light filled his eyes．At once, he got up and went down through the hospital hall into her room．He recognized her at once and decided to do his best to save her life．

    　　From that day on, he tried to help her．After a long struggle, they won!

    　　Before she left the hospital, the bill was sent to her room．She was afraid to open it because she thought that it would take a long time to pay it off．Finally, she looked, and to her surprise, she found these words on the bill：

    　　“Paid with a glass of milk．”

    　　(Signed)Dr．Howard Kelly

    　　Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she said silently, “Thank you, God．Your love has passed through hearts and hands．”
