Mr.. Birrelrs story about the little
ragamuffin in a church school stirred
a clerical correspondent to write a let
ter wherein he spoke of ragamufins
as boys who have more rags than
mullins" No doubt that was not meant
to be taken seriously from the etymolog-
ical point of view. The muffin of the
word has puzzled many. "Ragamuf-
fin says DR.. Johnson, sis from rag
and know not what else" According
to Dr. Brewer the word means a rag
ged "muff'' or muffin" "a spirtless
fellow. But the original Ragamoffyn
seems to have been Il demon in certain
old mystery plays, whose name was
probably just high sounding nonsense
1t is curious, however, that ''the rag
man" is an old name for the devil
