BUILT MANY CENTURIES AGO
Florida's Shell Mounds Believed to
Date Back to Before Beginning
of Christian Era"

Floridas ehell mounds, which are
found in different portions Of the
state are unquestionably of human
construction, and were probably built
by some race of people who Inhabited
the country about the beginning of the
Christian era. These mounds were
found overgrown with heritage and
forest as long ago as when the first
red man set foot in Florida, and the
fact that the deposit of earth above
them was sufficient TO give place to
the root of trees proved their great
age.
There have been found in all these
mounds pieces of pottery imbedded in
the shell conglomerate, as well as ar
ticles made of shell and bone, rude
Rtone implements and many bones Of
animals and fish, such as deer, terra
pin, rabbits, alligators and others. There
are In the entire state about forty
mounds, the most important Of which
are those of King Philips town, near
tAe outlet of Lake Harvey, which are
451 feet long, from 100 to 80 feet
brocd, and with an average height of
eight feet.

Fruit Is the Mainstay of Life to the

appreciate its grateful shade in the

there is tine delicious fruit to be con-
sidered, too. Many of us know the
date as a luxury-sometimes stuffed
or otherwise, but a considerable part
of the inhabitants of Egypt, OF
Arabia and Persia subsist almost en-
tirely on its fruit. They boast also OK
its medicinal virtues. Then the CAM
