Wikipedia says that this ship is the RMS Aquitania.

Fascinating! Does she have a name? She looks a lot like 'Titanic'.

Being a large Cunard liner with four stacks, this had to have been either the Mauretania, the Lusitania, or the Aquitania. The Aquitania was the largest of the three and, after she went into service in 1914, would have been the one most likely to be featured in Cunard ad. If the ad was published before 1914, it would have been one of the other two, which were almost identical.

There's a web page about Cunard's Atlantic liners here. It has links to pages about each of the three ships and to several other Atlantic liners, including Titanic.
