A Decent Story Print made by James Gillray and published by Hannah Humphrey, London, 1795 Hand-colored etching, Image: 12 3/4 X 8 3/8 inches Description A stout man (right), seated at a round table, tells a story to a parson on his left, who grins broadly. Two women fix the raconteur with expressions of absorbed amusement, while an officer is more frankly amused at watching the lady on his right. All are elderly. On the table are a decanter of 'Port' and glasses. A patterned carpet completes the design. From a sketch by an amateur, 9 November 1795, It is interesting to note that this print is reversed instead of the "stout man" been on the right he is on the left, see below for comparison.

DECREES OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION
WILLIAM BEBB COLLECTION OF HOSPITAL PRINTS PLANS OF RELIEF DURING THE REVOLUTION (DECRET) In the year 1789, the population of France was about 25,000,000, divided into three orders, the clergy, the nobility, and the third estate or bulk of the nation. The clergy numbered 149,000, and possessed real estate to the value of four billion livres besides enjoying tithes valued at eighty million, and other property. The nobility were 80,000 in number, and owned about half the territory, and, like the clergy, were absolved from great public burdens by the State. The third estate, numbering 24,800,000 after paying tithes, feudal taxes, the support of the royal family and the court, had to pay the cost of the army, navy, and general administration, these inequalities, added to theprodigalities of past reigns, brought on a financial crisis and great misery among the lower orders, when the States General convened in May, 1789. At this time, there were 2,185 hospitals, containing 105,000 inmates classed as follow: For foundlings, 40,000; for sick, 25,000; infirm and aged 49,000. Besides, there were numerous depots for paupers to say nothing of private charitable establishments. Accommodations were far short of the need. On March 21, 1790, the National Assembly "penetrated with the eternal truth, that the duty of providing for the subsistence of the poor in the construction of an empire is not less sacred than that of securing the prosperity of the rich" appointed a cocommittee to take into consideration the whole subject of public charity, and the various plans of relief. The committee, headed by the Duke of Rochefaucault, considered the subjects fully, and submitted results of their deliberations in a series of seven reports to the Assembly. After asserting that "pauperism" is not an offence excepting for him who prefers it to honest labor" the committee concluded: "Society should aid without requiring labor from those who are incapacitated by age or infirmity. Every man has a right to his subsistence, the relief of indigence is a debt due by the state." The 51,500,000 Livres found necessary by the committee for their relief plans were to be raised annually by taxation or were to form part of the national obligation. The measures recommended for the carrying out of this reform were never effected, and although there was much legislation, the Republic left pauperism very much as it had been, until Napoleon, who took Louis XIV for his model grappled with the subject, and as a writer, informs us: "attached great importance and a great idea of glory to the destruction of mendacity, and like that king, also, he sought to accomplish it by concentrating and adding constantly to his own absolute powers. But in spite of his omnipotence, and perhaps on account of that omnipotence, he succeeded no better than Louis had done before him. The beggars mocked the man who mocked kings, and Napoleon was not able to leave as he wished this mark of his passage. He is gone, and beggary remains." Whatever desirable results the Emperor failed to accomplish, he affected a great object in removing from the statute-book the act by which the Republic had declared the right of the poor to public aid. He also recognized the obligation of the nation to make up any deficiency caused by expenditures by hospitals and almshouses for the relief of inmates. Source: Dr. William Bebb notes, n.d.

(2) All' Ateneo delle Arti, Giuseppangiolo FONZI,. riconoscente all' onore compartitogli da questa saggia Societe per averlo nominato membro della medessima. 4pp., N.P., N.D. This pamphlet relates to Fonzi's invention of individual mineral teeth, a turning point in the history of dental prosthetics. While previously the entire mineral denture, both base and teeth, had been fired as a single piece, Fonzi in 1808 published a method for the manufacture of individual teeth with platinum hooks fired into them. . . . With the invention of these "Dents terro-metalliques" . . . which could be soldered to a metal bar, the determining step towards modern dental prosthetics had been taken (Hofmann-Axthelm, Hist. Dentistry, p. 256). Fonzi, an Italian dentist living in Paris, spent many years perfecting his artificial teeth, which were made from a combination of porcelain paste and various metallic oxides, and could be manufactured in a range of natural colors. In February 1808 he asked the Athenee des Arts in Paris appoint a commission to examine his invention. The commission's highly favorable report, written by Dr. Fabre (no. 3), was published the following May, and Athenee rewarded Fonzi with a gold medal and crown
