The Seminole Indians of Florida sit,
eat and sleep on platforms raised about
three feet from the ground under the
roofs of their houses. In each village
tbe houses are so arranged as to leave
an coon space in the middle of the Camp
and in the centre ot this is the cooking -
house. Here food is constantly kept en
the fire, for there are no hard and fast
meal hours.
They go about dressed in native cos-
tume. The men wear, on ordinary cm -
cations, merely a shirt of gayly colored
calico. To thie they add, whenever they
can obtain one, a derby hat a.nd a few
bandanna handkerchiefs around the neck.
This is their ordinary dress.
fin gala occasions they wear a turban,
made of a shawl held together by a band
of hammered silver, and sport an egret
or an -ostrich feather, beautiful woven
belts with symbolic designs.; leggings and
moccasins of buckskin, and a gorgeous
calico coat. The use of buckskin upper

skirt and a sleeved cap of calico. About
their necks they wear enormous masses
of beads, from the strings of width they
often hang silver coins, Many of the
women wear brooches or bangles beaten
from Mixer coins by the native smiths.
