Tightwad refused her indignantly, telling her that she already had more hats than she would ever be able to wear out, and started for his office in a rage. His arrival there, like a whirlwind, set everything in motion, and the repeated calls of Mrs. Tightwad over the phone, pleading for the new hat only served to add fuel to his rage. The entrance of Tillie, however, had a softening effect upon him, and he greatly admired the girl's new hat, much to the glee of the office boy, who watches developments from a safe place. Mrs. Tightwad, finally tired of phoning, decided to attend the sale without her husband's permission. On her way to the store she stopped in at the office for one last effort and arrived on the scene just as Tightwad was admiring Tillie's new hat. Jumping at the conclusion that he had bought the hat for Tillie, she grabbed it from him, and tearing it in shreds, rushed out of the office. Tillie, of course, immediately had a fit of hysterics, and poor Tightwad picked up the ruins of the hat and went out to buy her another one. He had no sooner completed his purchase when his wife entered, and seeing him with the hat box in his hands, she grabbed it and rushed out of the store. Sheepishly he returned to the store to buy a second hat just like the other one and sadly returned to his office a wiser and a poorer man by the price of two hats instead of the one that his wife had asked for at the breakfast table.
