The web page where you got the circuit has a layout already done that you can duplicate exactly on your bread board. Try changing your circuit to match that layout and see how it works.(1Hz Time Base Layout, Standard Radio Shack style protoboard.)
At one time, I built a 1 Hz generator using a CD4521B and a 4.194304 MHz crystal on a plastic breadboard and it worked fine. It was used to set the gate time of a frequency counter and I think I may still have that project somewhere in a box.
