One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods from door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to     36     for a meal at the next house.

However, he lost his nerve      37     a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked     38     so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it      39     , and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”

“You don’t owe me anything,” she     40    . “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a __41   .” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger     42    , but it also increased his faith in God and human race. He was about to give up and quit before this point.

Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called      43     to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now     44     , was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light     45     his eyes. Immediately, he     46     and went down through the hospital hall into her room.

     47    in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He      48    her at once. He went back to the consultation room and      49     to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave    50__attention to her case.

After a long      51     the battle was won. Dr. Kelly     52     the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was     53     that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her     54   . She read these words…

“Paid in full with a glass of milk.”

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she     55     silently. “Thank you, God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands.”
