One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry.
He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house.
However, he lost his nerve 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 brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it so 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 God and man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.
Many years later that same young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists to study her rare disease.
Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes.
Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room. Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once.
He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on he gave special attention to her case.
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, 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 A. Kelly.
Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed:
“Thank You, God, that Your love has spread broad through human hearts and hands.”
--A hot girl goes to her local pet store --
A hot girl, June, goes to her local pet store in search of an ‘exotic’ pet.
As she looks about the store, she notices a box FULL of frogs.
The sign says: ‘NAUGHTY FROGS’ Only $20 each! Comes with ‘complete’ instructions.
The girl, June, excitedly looks around to see if anybody’s watching her.
She whispers softly to the man behind the counter, “I’ll TAKE one!”
As the man packages the frog, he quietly says to her, “Just follow the instructions!”
The blonde nods, grabs the box, and is quickly on her way home.
As soon as she closes the door to her apartment, she opens the instructions and reads them very carefully.
She does EXACTLY what is specified: Take a shower. Splash on some nice perfume. Slip into a very hot nightie.
Crawl into bed and place the frog down in between legs, and allow the frog to do what he has been trained to do.
She then quickly gets into bed with the frog and to her surprise…
NOTHING happens!
The girl is very disappointed and quite upset at this point.
She re-reads the instructions and notices at the bottom of the paper it says,
“If you have any problems or questions. please call the pet store.” So, she calls the pet store.
The man says, “I’ll be right over.” Within minutes, the man is ringing her doorbell.
The blonde welcomes him in and says, “See, I’ve done everything according to the instructions.
The damn frog just SITS there!”
The man… looking very concerned, picks up the frog, stares ‘directly into its eyes’ and STERNLY says:
“LISTEN TO ME !! I’m only going to show you how to do this ONLY ONE .. MORE … TIME !!!”.
