Hi Rose, the shape of your spoon is called "Old English" the ns stands for nickle silver, which means they are plated not solid silver i'm afraid :-\ the other letters are the makers mark, i will see if i can find the maker, but the were many.

"& s" usually stand for "& Sons". Maybe the first and/or second letter is a quality mark or something...

If it's 'D & S' the only company i can find is Deykin & Sons but their marks seems to be different so far...
