Every notary public appointed and commissioned shall, at his own expense, procure a suitable notarial seal. Each seal shall have the name of the county of the notary's residence with that of the state and his own name on the margin thereof, and the words "notary public" across the center; and his official acts shall be attested by his seal of office.
The failure of such seal to conform to the provisions of this section shall not invalidate any official act or certificate of such notary public.
It shall be the duty of the Secretary of State to have printed a suitable number of copies of this section and to deliver to each notary public hereafter appointed a copy at the time of the issuance of his commission.
