    From chapters 14 to 16, Jim’s most notable qualities such as his gullibility as well as his loyalty to Huck come to light. The effects of his enslavement and his lack of a formal education also become evident, as most of his thoughts and actions from these chapters stem from a sort of innate practicality in thinking that Huck seems to lack. For example, in chapter 14, when the two are talking about how King Solomon threatened to cut a baby in half, Jim thinks that the king really is not so wise, saying, “En what use is half a chile?” (88). Jim, not hearing the whole story about why the King was actually wise, views the Solomon’s threats as just plain useless, and not beneficial to anybody. This practicality, although it sometimes makes Jim…

    As the novel, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, progresses, Huck becomes more mature. The reader can see this change in maturity by the level of his thinking and the changes it undergoes. The maturation of Huck is also evident in pranks that he plays, which progressively change his attitude and the way he thinks. The book starts off with a Huck that has a wild nature, and is not civilized. He is in Tom Sawyer’s “gang” that plays pranks of people. The prank that Tom and Huck play on Jim, Miss Watson’s slave, really stands out. Huck and Tom take Jim’s hat and hide it up on a tree branch above him while he is sleeping. Huck later realizes that Jim “was most ruined for a servant, because he got stuck up on account of having seen the devil and been rode by witches” (Twain 16). His prank set Jim up for a bad image, which had a negative repercussion which Huck did not see, showing his immaturity. Another prank Huck plays in which he doesn’t judge the consequences before hand, is when he places the dead snake in Jim’s bed. Unaware that the snake’s mate would come after the body, Huck causes Jim to be bit by a snake, which is very dangerous. Later on in the novel, Huck plays another prank on Jim, in which he pretends that nothing happened, when in reality, Huck and Jim are separated in the fog. He convinces Jim that Jim is crazy, and this concerns Jim. Huck feels “so mean [that he] could [have] almost kissed his foot to get him to take it back” after Jim insults Huck for making fun of Jim (Twain 75). He later apologizes, and regains the trust, but he realizes that not all of his pranks are good. Finally, Huck shows that he is much more mature when the “Duke” and the “Dauphin” come on the ship. Huck realizes that these two conmen are just bluffing their status. However he “never [says] nothing, never let on; kept it to [himself]” because then “you don’t have quarrels, and don’t get into no trouble” (Twain 104). He didn’t mind calling them what they wanted…

    Third, Twain uses Huck’s struggle to show the citizen’s thought process in the time of slavery. Huck worries that he and Jim are going to get caught: “It froze me to hear such talk” (Twain 57). Huck worries that he is doing the wrong thing by helping Jim escape slavery. What Huck does not realize is that he has chosen the morally correct solution. He is going against everything Miss Watson and the Widow Douglas ever taught him. In another literary critique, the author states that “Huck knows that there can be no degrees of condemnation; he therefore expects to suffer the maximum penalty” (Yates 10). Huck believes that he is going to go to hell for helping Jim escape, which to him is the maximum penalty. He has been taught that there is a heaven…
