from Who Was Who: 5000 B. C. to Date
RECAMIER

Madame, of Paris.  Supplied the society column to the
newspapers.  To be invited to her salon meant that you would
get plenty to eat, that you were somebody, that you would see
somebody, and that you would have to wear your Sunday clothes.
Her R. S. V. P.'s were always accepted.  R. finally lost her
money, and with it her friends.  Ambition:  The man of the
hour.  Epitaph:  When She Had It She Spent It.
