Question: Characters in the Upper Case (diagram from Updike's Printing Types)

$

Hello!
I was wondering if anyone could help me with the diagram below, which is from Updike's Printing Types.
I didn't recognize the little linear glyphs on the far right.
Does anyone know what they are?

Also, I didn't understand the marks below the 2 Em and 3 Em labels.
Does this refer to dashes?
I didn't know if the wavy characters were for wave-ornaments of some kind?

If anyone has information, I would be very grateful!
