Ah! Monsieur...votre bouillon est bien léger..., 1844. ...les malades soutiennent qu'y n'les soutient pas!...- J'ai corrigé ça... aujourd'hui je crains seulement qu'il ne soit trop fort... j'ai mis dans la marmite un demi-jeu de dominos de plus qu'hier... plus le double-six pour donner de la couleur!...(Les Philantropes du Jour. Philanthropists of the Day. First man: Ah! Sir... your broth is very thin... the sick claim that it does not sustain them!... Second man: I've corrected that... today I just fear that it is too strong... I put half a set of dominoes in the pot more than yesterday... plus the double-six to give some colour!) The satirist Honore Damier illustrates a stout philanthropist of the day selling his (possibly lacking) homemade broth to a couple of wounded men. Aberdeen lith
