The Chief Valet Speaks English,
French, German and.
- Italian.
His Majesty has three 'valets—a
chief and two assistant valets. The
chief valet has been with his Majes-
ty for, the past twelve years. His
duties are to superintend the care
of the Royal wardrobes,,o attend
on the King in the Royalg-
room, and to take all instructions
concerning the King's clothes which
may be 'given him either directly by
his Majesty or by one a the private
secretaries, says Lon p Answers.
His Majesty's clothes''are kept in
a large room adjoining the dressing -
room. The walls of the room are
lined with wardrobes, which are di-
vided into two Sections --ane sec-
tion contains the King's uniforms,
and the other his Majesty' -s ordi-
nary morning, walking, and evening
'edits of clothes. .
'Overnight, the chief valet is in-
strueted regarding the uniforms, if
any,. and the suits of. clothes which
the King will require for wear the
following day, and these are placed
by the assistant valets in the Royal
dressing -room. Before a suit or
uniform is sent into the Royal
dressing -room it inspected by the
chief valet, to see that itis proper-
ly brushed, ironed, and ready for
wear.
No Assistance Required.
/very morning the suits'ihvih the
King has worn the day previously
are brushed and ironed by the. assis-
tant valets.
The King, it may be noted, never
wears the same suit two days run-
ning. As a rule his Majesty would
not wear the same suit oftener than
once in the week, and when it has
been worn about two dozen times ib
would be put out of the Royal ward-
robes.
The present King keeps earlier
hours than did his late Majesty.
King George customarily risos at
seven o'clock, when ho takes a cup
of light coffee, which the chief valet
brings him directly the King enters
his dressing room. His Majesty
then has his bath, which is always a
cold ono; whilst the King to in hie
bath -room, the chief valet puts the
links and studs into his Majesty's
shirt, puts out an assortment of ties
on the, dressing -table, and places
the boots or shoes the King intends
to wear on a mahogany boot -,stance,
and then retires.
The King dresses himself without
the -aid of a valet, el rept when put-
ting on a uniform, when the chief
valet is "generally in 'attendance.
When the King travels the chief
valet superintends the packing of
his Majesty's luggage, which is
done by the assistant valets. A list
