The words “folio,” “quarto,” “octa- vo,” “ducdecimo” and the lke have almost, if not quite, lost thelr original meaning. At first they had reference enly to the number of leaves into which the sheets used in making the book were folded. Thus if these sheets were folded once the book was called n follo; If the sheets were fold- ed twice, so as to form four leaves, the book was called a quarto; if they were folded four times, 80 as to form eight leaves, the book was called an octavo, and so on, The duodecimo, or 12mo, is an ir cogular size. To make it the sheet must be folded so as to form twelve leaves. Fold one-third of the width of a sheet lengthwise on itself. Next fold the paper across its breadth in the center. Next fold the sheet across Its length—that is, fold the two leaves ou the four. Finally fold it again across and In such shape that it may casily be sewed in with others to form a book. But though, strictly and historically, quarto, have reference solely to the manner of folding the sheet, they are, as a matter of com mon practice, used to specify the sizes of books. If the sheets on which books are printed were of uniform sie a quarto page would be as unvarying an area as a square foot or an acre, and be fore the Invention of machines for making paper there was such uni formjty to be found in the sizes of sheets, But when paper making machines were Introduced and the use of molds was abandoned sheets came to be made of all As a quartos and o« had all sorts of dimensions, and the terms, when used strictly to the sheet was folded, worthless as designa- tions The use of the terms was nevertheless not ed, but instead they were to lodicate a wide octave, ete, dimensions. tavos indicate how old abandon range of attached to cer ithout refer rather FT Were of i will capacity On that sheet two, but he all the tavo, though by be called either a quarto or a 10mo In other words, the publist his book by the old 4 Come nears The changes n octavo pages, or | i P i $ is sizes away yet, but efforts have been mad to give definitencss to the old words New York Tribune.
