He looked pale and his clothes were in a frightful state.<BR> 'What has happened?' she asked. 'How did your clothes get into such a mess?'<BR> 'A fire extinguisher, my dear,' answered the Ambassador drily. 'University students set the Embassy on fire this morning.'<BR> 'Good heavens!' exclaimed his wife. 'And where were you at the time?'<BR> 'I was in my office as usual,' answered the Ambassador. 'The fire broke out in the basement. I went down immediately, of course, and that fool, Horst, aimed a fire extinguisher at me. He thought I was on fire. I must definitely get that fellow posted.'<BR> The Ambassador's wife went on asking questions, when she suddenly noticed a big hole in her husband's hat.<BR> 'And how can you explain that?' she asked.<BR> 'Oh, that,' said the Ambassador.
