查看习题详情和答案>>only had one dime (一角硬币) left. He was hungry so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.
However, he didn't beg when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a
drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of hot milk. He drank it
slowly, and then asked, "How much do I owe (欠) you?" "You don't owe me anything," she replied.
"Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness." He said, "Then I thank you from the bottom
of my heart." As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased

filled his eyes. At once, he went into her room. He recognized her. He went back to the consultation room
and decided to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special attention to her illness.
Finally the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. 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 thought that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and read these words,
"Paid in full with a glass of milk. Dr. Howard Kelly" Tears of joy came into her eyes as she prayed (祈祷)
silently: "Thank you, God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands."
