The Well-Dressed Woman of Smart Society, What She
Wears The Time and Place.
Br MARGARET WADE.
Ma dajs in Washington, despite the
war clouds elsewhere, are comparatlveb
cheerful dajs for the feminine portion
of the social world Not that the women
of the American Capital are indifferent
to the aofs of their friends abroad The
terj generous aid jr1en to the starving
multitude in Belgium and to the hos
pitals of France, of Russia, and of Serbia
dlsprotes- that idea
Washington is cheerful and happy
largely by reason of her ability to reliee
suffering;, and for the part she is plajing
in this unusual season which is holding
in Washington homes scores of promi
nent and wealth women who ordinarily
are hundreds of miles away at this time
of the j ear.
While the post-Lenten season has il
wajs been a period of social activity
and the occasion of much interesting en
tertaining: of an Important, but nonoffi
clal character, the activity rarely lasts
until the last day of the spring, as is
likel in the present ear.
The ill wind that blows no rood has its
illustration In the suspension of all
European trael and the promised in
crease in the patronage and Interest of
our own American summer resorts In
the meantime the round of dinners and
dances continue at the csuntr clubs,
with not a few informal entertainments
at town houses To meet the changed
condition of a late spring in town thre
has grown up a style of dress admirabl)
suited to the occasion.

Origin and Variations of the Name
Kins Man - First Settler of the
.Name In This Countrj Dnncau
Cnat-of-rma Bancroft Derived
from Word Meaning; "W hlte.
Baronial Orlnln nf the l.ovrll
Fnmil,.
One theorj regarding the origin of
the name is that some one who took
the character of a king in one of the
old mjstery plajs eventually adopted it
as hi? own. It is not likelj that it was
derived from a civil dignitj Prince.
Duke, Marquis and the like are some
times quite as well known as King, and
are supposed to have had a similar ori
gin Whatever its origin, it is one of
the oldest of surnames.
Variations of the name are Kinge,
Klngslev Klngsland. KingsburJ',
iKIngsmill Kingston, Klngsford. Kings
Icote, Klnglake, Kingsdown. Kinghorne.
and Klnsale Manj Huguenot fami
lies who settled In England changed
their name Ue Ro into King.
From 1643 or earlier, members of
the King famllv began to come to
America In 16S William Kinge. with
his wife Dorothv, an English Puritan.
and their five children, settled In Sa-
1 lem. Mass Thej came from Dorset
shire Immigrants from Devonshire
were James and William King. Devon
shire was the seat of a large family of
name Duncan and description of coat-of-arms
Duncan as a last name comes from
the first name. It is one of the
names used to describe the coloring; of
Its bearer for it means "brown head."
It is of Gaelic origin".
The arms are described: Gujes on
a chevron between two cinquefolls In
chief and a hunting horn in base or
two buckles axure.
To one of the Bancrofts who asks
for the origin of his famllj name.
Bancroft may be a name derived
from
or fair, and croft, an Anglo-Saxon
word for a small enclosed field.
In some parts of Scotland, and the
Orkney and Shetland Isles, crofters
are small holders of land. The
term Is now almost wholly confined
to the Western Highlands
Bancroft may mean a small, white
field, as Ashcroft means a close where
ashtrees grow, and Allcroft. or Hall
croft, an enclosure by the hall Croft
is a common termination of surnames
About the only variations of Bancroft
are Bancraft and Bancreaft.
To T. P. L who asks for as full an
account of the Lovell family In Amer
ica as possible, also whether it Is of
noble origin.
This familj of Lovel is the baronial
familj of Castle Carj. Count- Somer
set And although the connection be
tween the various first settlers In
America and the Barons Lovel of Castle
Cary is not known, it is clear that most
of the Lovels in America hied origi
nally from Somersetshire, and that
their ancestors and the ancestors of
the barons may easily have been the
same. The ramtiy is widespread now
in England, and there are over forty
coats-of-arms belonging to Lovells In
the College of Heralds.
In the year 1632 Rev. Joseph Hull, of
Somersetshire, England the same
countj where the "hot-tempered Lupus
settled resigned his parish In Devon,
where he had preached for eleven years
and with about twenty-five families
set out for the new world.
Just what Rev. Joseph Hull haa to
do with the Lovells may not seem
clear. One of Mr. Hull's friends, be It
stated, was Robert Lovell: and Robert,
who was to. his wife. Elizabeth, who
confessed to 35 jears. and their chil
dren, were of Dr. Hull's companj.
Altogether there were something
over a hundred persons who set sail

Mrs Chauncey M Depew. who. with
her husband, was ono of the much en
tertained visitors of last week, looked
handsome as ever In a street suit of
Mack and white check, with the newest
of military hats. Mrs. Depew "s skirt
vtas made with hip joke and had kilt
plaited sides, with box plaited front and
hick, and escaped the ground by at least
six Inches, showing low cut French
shoes of gray leather; real gray, neither
puttv nor sand color, such as one sees
by the rate of thirteen to a dozen any
day In the week. The coat was cut In
many sections, close fitting to the waist
with a flare of the skirt coming to the
hips.
The hat, although sold as a military
model, had a -wide, much flared brim of
black crln. with the crown of Belgian
blue. Its only trimming was a heavy
silk cord going about the base of the
crown tied In two precise loops, with tas
scled ends which rested on the brim at
the back.
A dinner gown worn by Mra. Depew
was equally becoming and decidedly In
dividual as this handsome matron re
fuses, eves when buying her gowns di
rect from Paris makers, to sacrifice any
principle of good taste to the fashion of
the moment. This particular town, mad

in the back The hat topping, this Is
a broad brim, black shape, faced In
the dull rose that forms the lighter
tone of the gown, with the addition
of an Irregular line of one-Inch
French blue velvet ribbon On the
top of the brim is another touch of
the blue velvet ribbon with several
well placed, long stemmed pink roses
Miss Anna Bell Maurj', noted for her
correct and distinctive stjle of dress,
has adopted dark blue satin, of light
weight, as a material for a utility gown
that answers for travel or informal vis
iting, as well as for the horse show.
This unusual creation has a narrow un
derskirt some two or three Inches off
the ground, with a side-pleated overskirt
several inches shorter. The overskirt, or
overdress, is finished about the edge In
a hcavj self-colored cord. The bodice Is
apparcntlj- a close-fitting boned lining.
overlaid in the blue satin, with a few
loose pleats across the shoulders. The
sleeves are long and close fitting, and
while the collar of white silk opens half
way down the front over a net chemi
sette, the bodice Is fastened In the back,
but In a line extending straight from the
left shoulder to the belt This new idea
is emphasized by the fastening nf bono
buttons the size of a nickel and well
worked buttonholes.
There Is a soft girdle of six Inches
deep, which is fastened In front with a
double row of the same comparatively
large buttons.
