I remember an older lady telling me about doing this when I was in my teens. Back then, probably the early 70's, I remember you had belts not self sticking pads like now. I dont know why she decided to share this bit of history with me but she did. I was young and all I remember thinking was YUCK. But now as I think about it as a grown woman, if I was sensitive to paper products, cloth would be alot more comfortable. Alot more work but more comfortable.
