La Revue Comique par Jehan Testevuide, no. 33-36

Four satirical vignettes. In the first vignette two women look at a newspaper headline about the pilot, Paulhan. One women wishes to marry him, but her companion tells her that he is already married and offers up Wilbur Wright instead. The second vignette shows the handle of a sword on which a laughing peasant sits on the tail of a serpent, which rises up as part of the decoration. A head rises out of the top of the handle. The sword has been made by students of the Turgot school for their friend Brieux, using elements of his style. In the third vignette, Teddy Roosevelt stands among a group of well-dressed men regaling them with stories of killing a hippopotamus in Africa. In the fourth vignette a playwright sits in the theater director's office, but as he has forgotten his play, he reads from a notebook.
