A minor shall be deemed capable under the provisions of this act of acquiring a separate settlement, in the same manner as persons of full age, from the time he or she has complied with either of the following provisions:
(a) If a male, by marrying and living apart from parents;
(b) By residing separately and apart from his parents and being lawfully employed when wages are paid to such minor.
