Bullet numbering does not make numbers - just dots

In the Bullet and Numbering Options, when I select Numbers.  The bullets appear as small dots and not numbers.  Screen grab attached.

 

Thanks for any insights

It's because you have typed a bullet (or removed the numbering metacharacter) in the numbering field
