_Ex._ _Kniaz_, _Fürst von_, _Freiherr zu_, _duc de Magenta_, _Bishop
of Lincoln_, _évêque de Meaux_; but _Emperor of Germany_, _King of
France_, not _Kaiser_ and _roi_, because names of sovereign princes
are given in English. Treat in the same way patronymics habitually
joined with a person’s name; as, «Clemens» _Alexandrinus_.
144. Prefixes (_i. e._, titles which in speaking come before the name),
as, _Hon._, _Mrs._, _Rev._, etc., should be placed before the Christian
name (as «Smith», _Capt._ John), and suffixes as _Jr._, _D.D._,
_LL.D._, after it (as «Channing», James Ellery, _D.D._).
Hereditary titles generally follow the Christian name, as «Derby»,
Thomas «Stanley», 1_st_ _Earl of_; but British courtesy titles (_i.
e._, those given to the younger sons of dukes and marquesses) precede,
as «Wellesley», _Lord_ Charles (2d son of the Duke of Wellington). In
other languages than English, French, and German the title usually
precedes the forename; as, «Alfieri», _Conte_ Vittorio. Occasionally a
French nobleman uniformly places his title before his forenames; as,
«Gasparin», _Comte_ Agénor de.
_Lord_ should be replaced by the exact title in the names of English
noblemen, _e. g._, Lord Macaulay should be entered as «Macaulay»,
1_st_ _Baron_. _Lord_ in the title of Scotch judges follows the family
name; as, «Kames», H. «Home», _afterwards Lord_.
The title Baronet is given in the form «Scott», _Sir_ Walter, _Bart_.
Patronymic phrases, as _of Dedham_, follow all the names; but they
must immediately follow the family name when they are always used
in close connection with it, as «Girault» _de St. Farjeau_, Eusèbe;
similarly _aîné_, _fils_, _jeune_, as «Dumas» _fils_, Alexandre;
«Didot» _fils_, Ambroise. Latin appellatives should not in general be
separated from their nouns by a comma; as, «Cæsar» _Heisterbacensis_.
145. Distinguish two subject-headings which are spelled alike by
italicized phrases in parentheses.
Ex. «Calculus» (_in mathematics_).
«Calculus» (_in medicine_).
146. Medium avoids the repetition of the heading with all titles after
the first by using a dash. Short usually employs indention.
Indention takes as much room as the dash and is much less clear. There
should always be at least a hair-space between the end of the dash and
the next letter; indeed that is the rule of all good printing. Under
a subject the repetition of the {67} author’s name is indicated by
a second dash.[48] (The repetition of the title is shown by the word
_Same_.)

— _Same_. Phila., 1795. 8º.

[note] 48. After trying several experiments I have settled upon the
following as producing the best effect:
Put
before the second and following lines of a title 3 em quads.
before and after the em dash that denotes repetition an en quad.
before and after the double dash (an em dash followed
by an en dash) an en quad.
between the parts of the double dash a 5-em space.
before Same, in addition to the regular en quad a 5-em space.
before the first line of _Notes_ and _Contents_ an em quad.
(Do not indent the other lines of Notes and
Contents at all.)
before the place of publication an em quad.
between the date and the size-mark an en quad and
a 5-em space.

147. Print in the special type a heading occurring in other parts of
the catalogue, when a reference is intended.
After _See_ or _In_, or when in a note some book contained in the
catalogue is referred to; as, “For a discussion of the authorship,
_see_ «Graesse’s» Lehrbuch.”
