One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he had ten cents left. He was hungry so he decided to beg* for a meal at the next house.

However, he lost his courage when a lovely young woman opened the door. He only asked for a drink of 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 pay you?"
"You don"t pay me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught me never to accept the 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 his believe in God and the whole human. He was about to give up and stop before this point.
Years later the young woman became fairly ill. The local doctors had no idea to deal with her illness. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists* can be called in to study her strange disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous was called in for the consultation*. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a light filled his eyes. Immediately, he got up and went down through the hospital hall into her room. Dressed in his doctor"s uniform he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. 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.
After Howard Kelly and his workmates worked hard for a long time, they won and the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him for agreement. 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 sure 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 attention. She read these words:
"Paid." (Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly
Tears of happiness came down out of her eyes as she prayed* silently: "Thank You, God. Your love has reached everywhere through hearts and hands of the human beings."

How much pocket money do you get from your parents every month? Maybe 200 yuan? But for Li Beibei, 30 yuan each month is enough. The only thing she buys is lunch—1.5 yuan each day. “Meat is too expensive for me,” said Li.
Li, 14, is a Junior 1 student at Beijing’s Xingzhi Experimental School. Her parents are migrant workers(外来务工人员). They came to Beijing from a village in Luohe, He’nan two years ago. Her father now works as a cleaner and gets 500 yuan every month. Her mother has no job.
