The comma is often omitted after the period in footnotes. The abbreviation
_ch_, _p_, and _pp_, may be made in notes, but not in text matter.

In lower-case text do not use _&c_, use _etc._

By-laws are often printed with side-headings _Art. 1_, _Sec. 2_, _etc._ It
is better to print the words, _article_ and _section_ in full in the
paragraph where they first appear and to omit the word in subsequent
paragraphs, using the proper figure only.

Figures used in illustrations to facilitate their understanding and
explained in small text below the illustration or in the text matter itself
do not have No. before them either in the illustration or in the
explanation. {22}

Figures and letters used as references to footnotes do not take a period.

Where two or more pages are specified in the text set them thus: _Pages 24,
25, 57_ not _pp. 24-5, 57_ nor _25-57_. When the reference is to several
pages continually set _pages 24 to 32_.

When a period of time is expressed by the dates of two or more consecutive
years, set thus: _1846-7_, _1861-5_, when there is a lapse of a year or
more, set thus: _1866-7-1869-70_. Do not abbreviate into _'66-'7-'69-'70_.
