The store win dows of Berlin are among the oddest evidences ot the fighting of the revo lution. Everywhere, where these has been fighting, the window panes have suffered, but Berlin Is different. In towns along the front window panes were no more after the vio lent bombardments of both armies; in Paris and other cities they were badly crashed in as the result of bombing raids, but Berlin's panes merely have holes In them. As machine gun bullets flew In every direction, they pierced tho windows with sharp round holes less than an Inch in diameter, around each of which is a flaky fringe. Com ing so fast, they did not crack ' the glass, especially the thick plate glass windows. In one single pane on Jerusalem strasse you can count more than 309 holes In the plate glass pane of a shoe store. As yet the plate of glass Is not cracked, and It is solid, but it will not keep out wind or water. - In some blocks scarcely a pane Is left without from one to 100 hflies in It, though rarely was a whitlow broken so badly It had to be boarded up. Itr most cases, the shopkeepers swept out the fragments of glass and tho holes in the windows servo as an additional attraction to prospect ive customers.
