Okay did not know that. I don't think so, mainly on street sign yes. I really like the way it look compare to a simple St. I should not use it in a french document?

Normally, this adjective should not be abbreviated in French, except occasionally if you're lacking space.

The following should produce what you want. You can use an optional argument to specify another letter than T (e.g. t):
documentclass[]{article}
newsaveboxmyboxA
newsaveboxmyboxB
newcommandsaint[1][T]
{%
begingroup
sboxmyboxA{S}%
useboxmyboxA
sboxmyboxB{tiny#1}%
rlap{raisebox{dimexprhtmyboxA-htmyboxB}{useboxmyboxB}}%
makebox[wdmyboxB]{.}%
endgroup
}
