      Special linen room for the Queen, enabling her second maid to 
      press gowns and linen without the attendance of any outsider.
 
      In that room, there should be a large supply of white tissue 
      paper and string of various sizes, to be used when re-packing.
 
      In the Queen's wardrobes, hangers should not be placed too high, 
      since Her Majesty seldom wears dresses with trains, and her dresses 
      should be easily reached.
 
      Light muslin clothes should be provided with which hanging clothes 
      would be covered.
 
      A second linen room for the King's valet and the suite.
