this done to help the newspapers?
No it was done because it paid the

already acquired legal and economic
independence, the condition neces-

AS to marriage the affianced pair
could at that time choose between
two different legal family regimes:
marriage, with manus, the older
form. in which all the goods of the
wife passed to the ownership of the
husband. so that she could no long
er possess anything in her own
name; or marriage without manuS,
in which only the dover became
the property of the husband, and
the wife remained mistress of all
her other belongings and all that
she might acquire.
Except in some cases, and for
special reasons, in all the families
of the aristOrcracy, by common con-
sent, marriages. during the last
centuries of the Republic, were con-
tracted in the later form, 50 that
