why don't I see the + icon in Spotlight?

I want to search my MBP for files. modified today. Directions for Spotlight suggest that's possible, but I don't see the layout on my computer that is shown in the spotlight directions.

Hi,

Go to System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy and the + should be there.
