He Was Ready For the Emergency and

A show of force is often the best
kind of diplomacy. A writer in the
Paris Temps tells story of the French
admiral Dupetit-Thouars, who had
been intrusted with the mission of
exacting reparation from an African
bey who had insulted a French consul.
As Dupetit-Thouars demands were

loaded cannon, the hey acknowledged
that he had been too hasty and prof

a sumptuous repast prepared for his

The consul warned the admiral to be

beard and smiles you may be sure that

"We shall see," was Dupetit-Thouars'
reply.
He reached the bey's palace In good

tatlons were exchanged. All at once
the admirals foot met some soft,
hairy substance lying on the carpet un.
der the table. He bent down and saw
a huge lion showing his formidable
teeth. The bey smiled and stroked his
beard.
Dupetit-Thouars did not vince. but
called his dragoman.
"My pistols" was all he said.
The servant saluted, retired and
brought back a pair Of pistols on a
silver tray. The admiral took them
and placed them on the table before
him. But the bey, still smiling, contin.
ued to stroke his patriarchal beard.
"Tell the commander" he said to
the dragoman, that If those pistols are
