Question

Read the lines from chapter 22 of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

Then at the bottom was the biggest line of all, which said:

LADIES AND CHILDREN NOT ADMITTED.

"There," says he, "if that line don't fetch them, I don't know Arkansaw!"

Twain is most likely using humor to convey his viewpoint that
people are often tempted by the thrill of something naughty.
people are often too ignorant to know when they are being fooled.
liars and swindlers will stop at nothing to make fast and easy money.
liars and swindlers are often considerate of the feelings of others.

is your closest answer
it is not B, because: the "he" is not being fooled
it is not C, because: if you keep out other people, that will be less money collected per person, which means less income
It is not D, because: liars and swindlers only think of themselves and DO NOT think about how others feel

hope this helps
