Trivial tidbits, week four

Welcome back, trivia fans.  I know you missed me and my riveting game last week, but I was preoccupied with a Dexter marathon in preparation for Sunday's season premier.  In honor of Dexter, and an uproariously funny incident involving Braden and a scrapped knee and a maxi-pad band-aid, I bring you this week's trivia question:


When, and by what company, were the first disposable maxi-pads available in America?

This week's prize:  a year supply of feminine hygiene products.  Good luck!
