WordPress replace all 404 http header with 410 – SEO

Im trying to replace all 404 error code with 410 gone request which is good for SEO
I have tried the following snippet from TheDevBlog Post

if ( is_404() ) {
            define( 'DONOTCACHEPAGE', true );       // WP Super Cache and W3 Total Cache recognise this
            status_header( 410 ); }

This is not working, i have checked the syntax & they are correct, why is it not working? what am i missing?

    You also need to add 410.php to your theme directory.

    You can create 410.php and copy the page template to see the result.
