"Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy! "he repeated the woman's words. Then in a low voice he said to his dog, "You are a nice little dog! "Tiger raised its ears as if it understood.

"Uhum! Even dogs like it! "he said. "Well, Tiger, I won't say unkind words to you any more." Tige waved its tail happily.

He looked at himself in the river. He saw nothing but a dirty boy. He washed his face carefully. Again he looked. He saw a clean nice boy. He was amazed. From then on, he had a new life.

After telling this, Jim stopped for a while, and then he said, "Ladies and gentlemen, that kind woman is the first person who planted the first seed of kindness in me. All of us should learn about kindness. What a great power it has!"
