medicines, salve, liniment or compounds of a like kind or any spices or
extracts, toilet articles or other articles of like kind unless he be a licensed
merchant, whether he be the manufacturer thereof or not, without a
license. Every person who shall sell any patent, proprietary or domestic
medicine, salve, liniment or compound of the like kind or any spices,
extracts, toilet articles and other articles of like kind, except a licensed
merchant at his regular place of business, shall pay an annual license
tax of * forty dollars for each vehicle used, but if no vehicle is used, each
person who sells, when traveling on foot, any of the aforesaid articles,
except a licensed merchant at his regular place of business, shall pay an
annual license tax of * forty dollars, which shall be the only license
required of such person for such privilege. The license taxes required by
this section shall not be prorated; provided, however, that any such person
who begins such business on or after July first of any calendar year may
be licensed for the residue of that calendar year on the payment of a
license tax of twenty dollars for each vehicle used, or twenty dollars if no
vehicle 1s used and such vendor travels on foot. .
