One day, young, Howard Kelly who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin coin left, and he was hungry. He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his courage when a lovely young woman, opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for; some water. She thought he, looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do, I owe you?” “You don’t, owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness.” He said, “Then I thank you from my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but his faith in people was strengthened also. He had been ready to give up and leave. Years later, that woman became seriously ill. The local doctors were greatly puzzled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in experts to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the naive of the town she came from, the light of recognition filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room. Dressed in his doctor’s clothes he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room even more determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on he gave special attention to her disease. After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it, and then wrote something on the edge, and the bill was sent to her room. She feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on the side of the bill. She read these words: “Paid in full with one glass of milk.” (Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly. Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: Thank you God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands.
