For example, it was widely believed that a plant or part of a plant that resembles an internal organ would cure ailments of that organ, Thus, an extract made from a heart-shaped leaf might be prescribed for a person suffering from heart problems.

While he was still a boy, his father and older brother died, and he became responsible for supporting his family.

Other important reforms included the establishment of state normal schools for teacher training, institutes for in-service teacher education, and lyceums for adult education.
