DIVORCE IN ANCIENT ZONE.

Five Years,

One Woman Had Eight Husbands In
Five Years.
We are assured by Seneca" says
the historical InCe. that there were
women IN ancient Rome who counted
their ages not by their years. but by
the husbands they had had. Juvenal
tells OF one woman who had married
eight husbands in five years. Divorce
was granted on the slightest preteXt.
Many separated merely from love Of
change. disdaining to give any reason,
ike Aemilius Paulus. who told his
friends that he knew best where his
shoes pinched him
Rich wives were not much sought
after by wise men. Their complete
emancipation made them difficult TO
manage. Accordingly. since both rich
and poor wives were Objectionable. tho
large majority OF men never married
at all. In most cases a Roman bride
groom knew practically nothing OF his
wife's character until after marriage.
Marriage for the Roman woman
meant a transition from rigid seclu-
sion TO almost unbOunded liberty She
appeared as a matter OF course at her
husbands table whether be had com
pany or not. She could 60 where she
liked. either TO the temples OF Isis
and Scraps or TO the circus and am
phitheater. She had her own troops
OF slaves. over whom she ruled with
