Square , and the cotillon the chief occupation , of Tyburnia and South Kensington . Gold is not likely to lose any of its worshippers . Where folly leads , wealth pursues . Sacrifices to the yellow god are made every moment without a sigh of regret , a tear of sorrow . In the world ' s law , to be rich is to be good , to be rich is to be clever , to be rich is to be petted . It is scarcely worth our while to make the suggestion , but cannot the rich give a little of their god to the poor ? Mr . Auctioneer will tell you the value of advertising ; surely then the social auctioneers should know the profit of a good action ? Of course , we would not counsel for a moment indiscriminate chanty ; but miking a donation to a well advertised charity here and there , would pay admirably . It would look well among the rich , and might find its way through the pockets of matrons , . doctors , and nurses , into the hands of the poor . Surely the idea is " worth a trial "—like somebody ' s marmalade . Our artist has depicted in our cartoon this week the gold worshippers . We have left politics for a while to those who love them—the thought has been suggested by the hard , bitter frost we have recently experienced . The Pall Mall says our preaching is useless . So it may be ; but what care we so long as we honestly are striving to do good by an " occasional " leader , written on moral principles ? It is very cold just now ; for all that let the rich take their hands from their pockets and succour the houseless with a little of that gold they have worshipped so long , and so devoutly .
