Answers
helium = hum + lie latest = let + sat almond = man + old eldest = led + set placed = cap + led radium = air + mud desert = red + set wealth = law + the tricky = cry + kit funnel = elf + nun
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.
