What is "-type" supposed to do? I've never used it before, never needed it.

Subject: find question
I am sure this is something I am doing that is obviously wrong, but I
cannot figure it out.
I am reading a list of directories from a file, and then listing all
of the files in the directory to a file.
Here is the code.
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
cat ${FILELIST} | while read LINE
do
echo ${LINE}
`find ${LINE} -type f >> ${TMPFILE}`
done
Here is the output.
/usr/home/windowsaccess
find: illegal option -- t
find: illegal option -- y
find: illegal option -- p
find: illegal option -- e
find: f: No such file or directory
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jay
