\textsc doesn't have any effect within the chapter title.

\documentclass[11pt]{book}
\begin{document}
          \tableofcontents
\chapter{The Basis of \textsc{Arithmetic}}
  	Some \textsc{Text}
		 \newpage
  	Some more \textsc{Text}
\end{document}

Observe that \textsc works on "Some \textsc{Text}" but neither on   
"\textsc{Basis}" in the chapter title nor in the toc but that it does  
work in the running heading (page 4)

Same results with

\chapter[The Basis of \textsc{Arithmetic}]{The Basis of  
\textsc{Arithmetic}}
