City Printing House.    Hastings Street, near the Post Office, Vancouver, B.C.  R. Mathison, Jr. The job printer.   To The Citizens of Vancouver:   I  have  come here to stay and  grow  up  with  the  city. To enable me to do so I have opened a job printing Establishment on hastings street, near the post office, where I am prepared to execute printing of all kinds, such as:   BILL   HEADS,   CARDS,   LETTER   HEADINGS,  STATEMENTS, LAW BLANKS,  AGREEMENTS,  PROGRAMMES,  NOTES, RECEIPTS,  CHECKS,  BILLS OP FARE, DODGERS, POSTERS,   ENVELOPES, PAMPHLETS   AND GENERAL   PRINTING   As the city progresses, as it most assuredly will, I intend to keep abreast of the times.  It is the tendency of the age to demand good, neat printing.  My presses and types are all new, selected especially for the business of this place, and as a practical printer I flatter myself that I know how to use them to advantage.  By using only the best inks and stationery, being courteous and obliging and charging fair prices I look for and solicit a share of public patronage.  Come in and see my office and inspect my work.  Yours faithfully, R. Mathison, Jr.
