Alternative Answers
The following answers use less common words.

helium = him + leu
helium = hue + mil
helium = hum + lei

latest = els + tat

almond = don + lam
almond = lam + nod

eldest = eld + set
eldest = els + ted

placed = pec + lad

radium = mud + ria
radium = amu + rid
radium = aid + rum

wealth = awl + the
wealth = haw + let

There are more answers with even rarer words, but I've chosen not to include those.
