 experience in the capacity of dispensing pharmacists, selecting not more than two. 

 members from any one city, and the said five pharmacists shall constitute the board

 That the term of office of the five first appointed shall be so arranged that the term 

 of one shall expire on a given day of each year, and the vacancies so created, as 

 well as all vacancies otherwise occurring, shall be refilled by the governor.

 to the same under the provisions of this act; to cause the prosecution of all persons 

 violating its provisions; to report annually to the governor the condition of phar-
