This joke plays on a pun between "pain" (pronounced like "pan" in French) which means bread in French, and "pain", which is a negative sensory response to physical trauma. The humor suggests that being around French people eating baguettes makes you feel better because they are "pain killers" in a literal sense, providing comfort and enjoyment through the shared experience of eating bread.
