# I have said, vel potius Pondere, because weight is a much more 
accurate Method of ascertaining Proportions than Measure, in pre¬ 
paring Medicines of great Activity, of which Sort the Mineral Solu¬ 
tion is a strong Example. It is perhaps superfluous to remind the 
Reader, that Troy Weight (which differs materially from Avoirdu¬ 
pois) is always implied in medicinal Professions.
